THE FIFTH ELEMENT... I mean O-Ring Post 2 of 2 January 12, 2026
Starring my car "Svengoolie", Bruised ******* and Mimi YoYodawitch.
NOTE: It is not necessary to change the 5th o-ring.
This post was done just to show where and what it was for. It is possible to break the filter housing if it is done incorrectly.

After doing the oil level sensor, I had to add new oil and a new oil filter.
The MANN oil filter kit comes with 5 o-rings.
Usually when people change their oil and filter, there's always that extra 5th o-ring that gets tossed out.
Well, I did a little digging, which led to more pictures, which red to more descriptions, which led to another post!

This is the work that I did on my car. It's for reference only. Any work that you do on your car is your responsibility.
